What is Webroot Security Awareness Training

Webroot Security Awareness Training is a cloud-based security awareness and phishing simulation platform used to educate employees and reduce social-engineering risk. It is typically deployed by IT and security teams, including managed service providers, to run training campaigns, assign courses, and track user progress and phishing-test outcomes. The product emphasizes packaged training content and simulated phishing workflows with reporting for compliance and risk tracking. It is commonly positioned alongside endpoint and email security programs rather than as a standalone vulnerability remediation tool.

pros

Phishing simulations and campaigns

The product supports simulated phishing tests to measure user susceptibility and reinforce training with follow-up actions. Administrators can run recurring campaigns and track results over time to identify higher-risk users or departments. This aligns with common requirements in the category for measurable behavior change and audit-friendly reporting.

Centralized training administration

It provides a single console to assign training, manage users, and monitor completion status. Reporting helps document participation and outcomes for internal governance and external compliance checks. This is useful for small-to-mid-sized organizations that need structured, repeatable awareness programs without building custom content workflows.

Fits MSP-led deployments

Webroot’s ecosystem is frequently used in managed IT/security service delivery, and the training product is commonly packaged in that operating model. This can simplify rollout when an external provider manages multiple customer tenants and standardizes awareness programs. It also supports ongoing program management rather than one-time training events.

cons

Not vulnerability management focused

Despite sometimes being grouped with broader cyber risk tooling, this product’s core function is awareness training and phishing simulation, not asset discovery, scanning, or patch prioritization. Organizations looking for vulnerability identification and remediation workflows will typically need separate tooling. Any “vulnerability management” value is indirect (reducing human-factor exposure) rather than technical vulnerability reduction.

Content depth may vary

Security awareness platforms differ significantly in the breadth of course libraries, localization, and role-based modules. Buyers with strict industry requirements (e.g., specialized regulatory training, extensive language coverage, or highly tailored modules) may need to validate whether the available catalog meets their needs. Custom content creation and advanced learning-path controls may be less extensive than platforms built primarily for training.

Advanced integrations can be limited

Some organizations require deep integrations with identity providers, HRIS/LMS systems, and security telemetry to automate enrollment, offboarding, and risk-based training assignments. Depending on the environment, integration options and API depth may not match more automation-centric security platforms. This can increase manual administration for complex enterprises.
